Dragging the wife might also have added side learning benefits.
eg, leaning how to reset your own compound fractures, and head lacerations,
after she beats you senseless with a frying pan or pastry roller.

I would think dragging by feet face down would be worst - face scratching.

Then dragging by feet face up - head might bounce up and down on rocks.

I think I would prefer to be dragged by my arms, then my head would be off
the ground.

Suggest practicing all of the above on your wife. See which she prefers

and
which gets you the quickest time.

This isn't a troll post, and yes, it's OT. But, this is a compliment to
this NG, because out of all the NG's I had subscribed to, this is one of

the
few I haven't unsubscribed. It's because this NG is filled with everyday
people, with knowledge of the real world. Besides that, I don't know

what
other NG I would ask, and I've searched Google, but can't find my

answer.

Here's the deal. I've been trying to get on with DOT for the past year

(7
applications for different positions). I've finally got something back

from
them, to take a physical ability test (PAT). One of the events requires

the
candidate to DRAG an adult size rescue dummy for twenty-four feet. Any

part
of the rescue dummy's body may be used for the drag. However, the rescue
dummy is NOT to be picked up, hoisted over candidates' shoulders, or
carried. Also, candidates are NOT permitted to walk backwards to

complete
the drag. This is a timed completion event and to pass candidates are
required to complete the drag in eleven (11) seconds, dragging the dummy
completely past the "end" cone. The rescue dummy weighs approx. 100 lbs.

So, how would you drag the body?

Thanks!
